this one was the scariest of all the rides for me, i hate the slow going up, the little stop before the drops... the darkness i mean was fun but screamed my heart out LOL almost peed myself xD
I rode this just a few days ago at IoA and I have to say, it's easily the best water ride I have ever been on, the theming to Dudley Do-Right is fantastic and has several great drop elements to it.
Very underrated ride. Fun family ride also, kids can do it! If you’re planning on going to Island of Adventure. Please go on this ride. One of my favorites.
It's a bit brutal in places and I screamed myself hoarse but glad I did it and 2 days before I'd not been on a coaster for decades and I only had a couple of practice runs on calmer ones 2 days before I did this one 😱🤣🦖
You guys must go early in the year every year. From January to March usually at some point all of the water rides: popeye, ripsaw, and jp close for refurb.
i went on this ride yesterday for gradventure, and it was pretty fun. the line sucked because it was so small but the ride itself wasn’t bad. i didn’t like how we were in the dark most of the time though. however, i will say that the biggest drop was amazing!! if you want to go in the ride i recommend going during the day and not at night.
I remember being on this ride 20 years ago and it not having any belts or straps to hold you in. Not sure if it was my childish imagination but I could have swore that if I didn't hold myself to the seat using my hands, I would have been thrown from the ride.
when I was a kid, thunder mountain used to have the same effect and was shockingly dangerous. The fact people have died or been seriously injured wasn't necessarily surprising.
I went last year for the first time in March. I love water rides so I was excited to get on this. Boy was I wrong. The anxiety of not knowing how long this ride would be or where the final drop was was killing me. The 2:32 almost made me pass out haha I wasnt expecting the pitch blackness and the drop!! But that final drop is worse than what it looks!! Plus your socks and shoes get SOAKED. I would love to ride this in Summer though...now that I know they layout.
The best part of this ride is the pay-per-use water cannons that you can squirt people with. Years ago when it was a quarter a pop I would stand there and spend dollars getting people 😂.
don't even bother to pun on a poncho.... maybe to protect your shoulders LOL.... the water enters the whole boat! but dosent matter... i mean if it is a hot day.. this one is awesome!
I went to Orlando fl last weekend I was looking forward to getting on this They closed for construction I guess they upgraded it so when I go back they going to opened back up
Whereas Popeye for me is in the Top 3 of Water Rides in the world, this ride just never did it for me. It's not the system or layout, all that is great. Just the design is off. Sure, it's themed after a comic, but going through black, empty rooms just feels like budget mode. Even the outdoor sections are lackluster. It's decent fun but given the choice, Popeye ANY day
This is based off a tv show from rocky and bullwinkle, this ride opened in May 1999 with islands and was the cheapest ride in the park actually , this was originally supposed to open later after the grand opening around July 1999 but it opened early, if it would’ve opened when it was supposed to it would’ve been a lot better
@@wille3573 Supposedly Universal has bought the rights to it and intends to turn this ride into a modern version of splash mountain. Not sure if it’s true, but it would be cool to see this ride repurposed into a different one
